hmmm pick a point on either the shaded "true" area
or the non-shaded "false" area
any point, let's test the options

studygurl14 · Answer

Also, since it is a dotted line, you can eliminate two answer choices.

jdoe0001 · Answer

hmm true
bear in mind that a "dotted" or "dashed" line, means $\Large >\ or \ <$
as opposed to a "solid" line that means $\Large \le\ or \ \ge$

anonymous · Answer

I got B

studygurl14 · Answer

That is incorrect. Can you show us how you got that?

jdoe0001 · Answer

well....hmm so.... got point?

jdoe0001 · Answer

hehehe

jdoe0001 · Answer

why not just pick a point, on either the shaded or not side, and let's check it :)

anonymous · Answer

I figured B because I though the dotted line ment < with line under

anonymous · Answer

also because its on this side <

studygurl14 · Answer

Yes, usually it does. HOWEVER, since this is not in slope-intercept form, that method does not work. Notice how it is -4. That means that to move into slope-intercept form, you would have to divide by a negative number. @jdoe0001 's method of plugging in a point helps you solve without having to convert the answer choices into slope-intercpet form. I hope that makes sense. :)

-4y, i mean

anonymous · Answer

a or c

@StudyGurl14 @jdoe0001

jdoe0001 · Answer

hmmm you're meant to do the exercise though, that's the idea, to understand it
rather than to pick a letter

studygurl14 · Answer

Look at what @jdoe0001 put. dotted line means either < or >. Solid line means either $\ge$ or $\le$

anonymous · Answer

no I chose C because I crossed out two that wouldnt make sense A and D cross out B because Yes, usually it does. HOWEVER, since this is not in slope-intercept form, that method does not work So C

studygurl14 · Answer

Sorry, I misread your previous comment. I didn't realize you thought dotted line meant $\ge$ or $\le$, cause it doesn't.

anonymous · Answer

oh ok

studygurl14 · Answer

No, it's not.

anonymous · Answer

I got it for sure A @StudyGurl14

studygurl14 · Answer

No, sorry. It's not A. Did you try plugging in a point like @jdoe0001 told you to?

anonymous · Answer

yes im not good at this

anonymous · Answer

Not A not B not C .... Its D  because would have to divide by a negative number, plugging in a point helps you solve without having to convert the answer choices into slope-intercpet form

@StudyGurl14

studygurl14 · Answer

Correct. D is correct, haha, it's the only one left.
